Dot List

Dot List aka Forster List is a tiny demo of Mark Forster's Final Version todo system. There's a thorough explanation on the Beeminder blog.

How Do You (To)Do?

  1. New tasks are added to the bottom of the list
  2. The top task gets a dot
  3. Start review takes you through the list comparing each task to the current dotted task
  4. At the end of the review, you'll have a chain of tasks which you work from the bottom up
  5. As you mark items off, Dot List will surface the next item in your chain
  6. Note: you do not have to complete the entire task! At a minimum make a start on it. You can always click "Started, not done" and push it back onto the bottom of the list for next time.
